O melhor albúm dos Beatles
A resposta é Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.
"Gravado em uma época de psicodelismo e experimentação, o álbum, produzido por George Martin, é um precursor de técnicas de gravação e composição. Foi o primeiro disco gravado em oito canais, com dois consoles de quatro canais. Foi, além disto, um êxito de vendas e popularidade. Incorporou técnicas muito inovadoras no mundo da música.
A ideia central do álbum consistiu na que os Beatles tomaram o papel da Banda do Clube de Corações Solitários do Sargento Pimenta, deixando para trás limitações e transformando o rock em objeto de culto. Em treze canções levam ao limite o conceito do rock, agregando orquestrações, instrumentos hindus, gravações tocadas ao revés e sons de animais. Rock, music hall, baladas, jazz e até música oriental se mesclam em Sgt. Pepper."
A minha preferida é:
A Day In The Life
(sugar, plum, fairy... sugar, plum, fairy.)
I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords.
I saw a film today oh boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had a look
Having read the book, I've loved to turn you on...
Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up I noticed I was late.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
and somebody spoke and I went into a dream
I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
I've loved to turn you on.
